Car seat

Should you put the babys car seat in the front or the back of the car, i have had mine a while now and when i brought it the lady said it should go in the back but only having two door this is going to be a pain, i have seen people with them in the front what do u guys think?

I dont know what this lady is thinking of.I have always put my baby in the front and I assumed you were supposed too because they face back way not front ways untill they are a certain weight,then they can forward face at the back. If you put them in the back,you cant see them as they are facing the other way and this would make me feel uncomfortable that I cant see them.

Don't forget that airbags that are fitted in the front of a vehicle can and do cause a lot of child injuries and some deaths every year. As such i think there is a minimum age in the front now ( it may be worth checking ).

just checked and it says not illegal without air bags! it is however illegal to put a rear facing seat in the front with air bags!!It also stated that its much much safer in the back hope this helps xx

I thought that is how it is now. I always put my son in the front, i do not have air bags on the passenger side. But i have the same problem only a 2 door car and its a right pain trying to get him in the back.

Thats right. Its also illegal to have a child under 12 (not sure there might be a little older) to be sat in the paasenger seat using a booster too.

If you have to put your baby in the passenger seat just make sure the AirBag is off.
